>>Maybe Buffett is just too big a player << right, and if he copied Graham, he could STILL be copying Graham because he wouldn't have the money he has now.

>>Graham's methods work. Buffett's do not. << Really? Hmmm.

>>>such that you buy more stocks when they appear low and buy more bonds than stocks when stock prices are high. << And Paul, just WHEN is that? Do they APPEAR low or high now? Why?

>>But they do not get a methodology that they themselves can use to emulate Buffett. << They don't? He lays it out every year. There are SCORES of books about it.

>>then that person would not have bought much since 1995 and would've missed one heck of a chance to make money in the Bull Market << Buffet participated without buying much Paul. And so did anyone following his approach. It's called HOLDING. And I' bet your VALUE stocks really PARTICIPATED between August and October!

>>For example, it seems to me on the Buffett thread there's a bunch of sharp people all looking for Buffett stocks. There's really no consensus and VERY few ideas, let alone recommendations - maybe one company RAL - a possibility. << Nobody said that we ARE Buffet over there. We are still LEARNING. Many of US are still wedded to the OLD school. There is MUCH to learn and you can tell by the ideas or lack of them. For one, they should be looking at SMALLER names. Instead, they are mostly looking at what Buffet NEEDS to look at. Large Companies.

good luck Paul.
